Bike Raffle and $5,000 Bike Safety Grants

Bike Portland is holding a raffle for that Amsterdam bicycle I lust after. $4 is a price even I'd be happy paying for one of those beautiful beasts.

I was reading Bike Portland to see if anyone was talking about applying for one of the bicycle safety mini grants offered by the Community Cycling Center, the grants go up to $5,000.

It occurred to me that this could be a good source of support for my Public Safety Campaign For Poor and Working Adults on Bikes idea. I wrote about it in 2003, and in 2005, someone actually did it, although without the focus on bars and the North Portland Peninsula, I think -- and completely independently of me, of course.
